Hex-Head Thumb Nuts
 |
Apply extra torque to these nuts to prevent accidental loosening. Twist them on by hand, then crank with a wrench for a tight fit. The flange distributes pressure evenly across the mounting surface without the need for a separate washer. These nuts are often used to secure screws in oversized or irregularly shaped holes since the flange covers a larger area than standard nuts.
Corrosion-Resistant Stainless Steel
18-8 Stainless Steel—The choice for wet and outdoor environments, these nuts resist rust. However, they won't hold up to the harsh chemicals that 316 stainless steel can.
Flanged-Hex Slide-Adjust Push-Button Nuts
 |
These nuts have a flange that distributes the load over a large area and reduces stress where the nut meets the material surface. Push the button to disengage the threads for quick adjustments on threaded rods. They can be tightened with a wrench once positioned by hand. A black-oxide finish provides corrosion resistance in dry environments.
